Iryna
Iryna was born and brought up in Ukraine and came to Britain ten years ago with the hope to work in the beauty and fashion industry.
It was at the beginning of 2019 that she picked up a prospectus of the local college and learnt about the Health & Beauty courses there. She also received the leaflet of MTC learning about English courses. The centre was very near to her house which was ideal.
I became so happy to be able to do my English and Maths at MTC learning. The moment I entered the premises, I saw everyone smiling and really helpful. I found my class’ teacher Shohreh really approachable, patient and friendly. Not to forget my classmates, they all came from various countries and diverse backgrounds. Everything was totally different from my previous learning experience! The most important thing is the fact that my English and Maths course helped my studies at college significantly. I am really grateful to all at MTC Learning’.

Alice
My Name is Alice and I am from Italy. I came here to work as an au pair, but at the beginning my English was not so good. I couldn’t understand a lot, so I decided to start an English course and I found this school in Leytonstone and I attended Entry 3 course. After one year I can say that my English has improved a lot. It was very important to go to school, so I could listen and talk to other people. The teacher was very good and the lessons have been very useful. I am so happy for this experience and so proud to improve so much.
